Hello, I'm on day 2 of my quit.  I have quit many, many times before, but this one somehow feels different in a way.

I feel much more determined now, and lot's of the turmoil in my life has ended.  I'm hoping to make this my forever quit!!

I've lived through cancer, and I don't want this insideous addiction anymore.  I would never forgive myself if I gave camcer to myself again by continuing to smoke!  I sure hope it's not too late for me, I will always be at risk now.

My daughter has moved away with my grandson and son-in-law.  I want to live a long time and see my grandchildren grow up.  I want to live long enough to travel to see her and my sweet grandson. 

This is all up to me!  I won't give up this time around!!

Hugs all,

Christine

I'm a widow now, my husband passed away January 1, 2018 He died of COPD, and pre leukemia and the flu. He quit smoking 15 years ago which gave him extra time. I am a mother, and grandmother. I have smoked for 47 years. I am going to have my forever quit and I'm doing it for me and my two daughters so I can live longer and be with them. I like to read, swim, garden, crochet, paint and doodle. I also enjoy walking and visiting with friends and family. I am 100% making this my last quit. I have been in denial about what smoking has done to me and my kids. I must make a new life for myself and it doesn't include cigarettes. I may already have COPD, but have not been officially diagnosed.
